FRSC To Sanction Female Officers Who Violate Dress Code

The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has vowed to ‘de-rank’ or ‘sanction’ female officers found guilty of violating the commission’s dress code.

Speaking in an interview with The Guardian on Wednesday, FRSC Corps Marshall, Dr. Boboye Oyeyemi said strict measures will now be applied if anyone is caught.

According to him, the commission will no longer tolerate the violation of its dress codes.

Oyeyemi said: “If I catch any officer again dressing improperly against our dressing codes, we would de-rank her or make her face stiffer sanctions like dismissal.

“As long as I am privileged to be the Corps Marshall, I will also not condone indiscipline or indecent dressing.

“It is absolute nonsense and irrational behavior for any officer to dress as if they are going to a fashion parade, for your braided hairs to be touching your waste and coming to work in a uniform organisation like this. Nobody will close his eyes to such, so all must be warned.”

This comes a month after Rivers State Sector Commander, Andrew Kumapayi, and other senior officers were recalled after the commander was seen at a parade cutting off the hair extension of two female corps.
